It was adapted from RK Narayan’s short stories in his books like Malgudi Days, An Astrologer’s Day and Other Short Stories, A Horse and Two Goats, Swami and Friends, and The Vendor of Sweets.
Malgudi Days starred Manjunath Nayaker who was then known as Master Manjunath. Karamchand’s style of munching carrots and scolding his assistant with a “Shut up, Kitty” whenever she asked a stupid question or almost divulged a case detail, became the highlight of the show. Pankaj Kapur, as detective Karamchand, and Sushmita Mukherjee, as his secretary Kitty, help police solve murder cases. Every episode ended on the line – “Vikram bhaag jaa, mera peecha chhod de… Jisne tujhe mere peeche lagaya hai woh maha dhoort hai…” If you remember! Karamchand (1985-2007) Before Ramayan happened to actor Arun Govil, he played the king here, while Sajjan portrayed Betaal. It was based on a collection of Indian mythological tales from Baital Pachisi, about king Vikram and a spirit. Subscribe now at less than Rs 4/day Vikram Aur Betaal (1985)
